@Caelumtangi perfecte! 😀

Een buitenkansje straks om twaalf uur bij het Spinoza standbeeld naast de Stopera in Amsterdam. Ik moet hiervoor even naar LinkedIn linken, want ik heb Itai Bar nog niet naar #Mastodon. #workinprogress https://lnkd.in/p/er_c3Acd

Checkup complete, on the way home. Details later, phone kb sucks.

how do *key and mastodon subscribe to a relay based just on the inbox URI? anyone know off the top of their head? if you do an http GET to a relay inbox URI it gives you:

{
"@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
"id": "https://rel.re/inbox",
"totalItems": 1617332,
"type": "OrderedCollection"
}

ie., there's no obvious way of linking back to the relay actor https://rel.re/actor based on the inbox URI https://rel.re/inbox

@SmilaBlomma @antanicus notavo ora che hanno usato il termine "è boom" parlando di un distributore di benzina.
Ma secondo voi lo fanno apposta?

@lake Oh hey! Been a while since I was this close to the Dom. Thanks for sharing the amazing view. I really like the "smoked" dark look of the church, although I'm unsure if that's design choice or just nature running it's course.

To everyone when they see horrible privacy news about Microsoft replying with:

"I don't care, I use Linux"

Sure, you do. But does your medical clinic do? Does your therapist do? Does your family member typing a personal email to you in Word before sending it do too?

This is a systemic problem.

You cannot protect your own data only by using Linux yourself. You must also demand stronger regulations and enforcement to obligate organizations around to protect your data as well.

Vous vous rendez compte quand même qu’au PS ça leur dérange pas le moins du monde d’avoir Gluglu le Sarkozyste comme candidat — et chez les Écolos ils veulent encore qu’on fasse alliance avec les socialistes ??

Ça va pas hin
C’est litteralement un macronard 3000, faut le répéter combien de fois pour qu’on arrête de se faire gaslight par la zumba selon laquelle il serait soi-disant de gauche

🥹 Watching this monarch butterfly pollinating Tithonias was probably the highlight of my week!

🌱 I ordered native milkweed to help support these beauties.

The #Hetzner hosted part of the #Fediverse probably wants to see this tour though the Hetzner datacenters.

Also #HomeLab people, I think we've been trying both too hard and not hard enough. What do you think after watching this video?

The kittens are allowed out the front now!

They came to say hello earlier before returning to chasing leafs blown in the wind and stalking one of the other neighbourhood cats.

I have placed a cardboard box in the back garden, I am going to see if it catches any cats.

It's paywalled, so I can't see, but one of the problems abled faculty had with recordings and online options that help disabled students (and disabled TAs and faculty, frankly) is that they worried about their work being yoinked. And apparently Harvard has done that.

It is a reason why it is imperative for abled people to work with disabled people in resistance ahead of time - AI bros have been using disabled people as an excuse and a shield for AI being implemented quickly and everywhere.
